Athletic Brewing Company

🌍 United States · Regional · Known for a full range of styles
Known for a full range of styles

A brewery devoted entirely to non-alcoholic beer, founded in 2017 by Bill Shufelt and John Walker. They began test-brewing in Stratford, Connecticut, working through more than a hundred batches on homebrew equipment before building a brewery around the process. Production now runs on two coasts: Milford, Connecticut, and San Diego, California, where the 2021 expansion took the site to 200,000 barrels of capacity. The beers are brewed without alcohol from the outset rather than dealcoholised afterwards. The company is a certified B Corporation and gives two percent of sales to trail restoration.

Their signature has to hold across very different styles — which makes the notes that do recur more telling, not less.

What sets them apart
Each beer measured against others of its own style, then averaged across the range. Compared with 540 other Lager breweries.

Absent — the field expects it.

Across 7 beers in 5 style families, one trait still carries through — a broad range makes a shared signature harder to hold.
